He says they want to bring back Spain, if possible...are hoping Pollack can 'elicit more out of Michael Jordan'...and he sees XSF as being a 'serviceable piece'.
He thinks that RT will be the starting point when comes to the o-line, and that RT Taylor Moton is the guy they may 'open up the wallet' for...with Buffalo's Daryl Williams being the 2nd option. They could also wait and try to land Sewell or Slater in the draft.
At G, he mentions how much guys like Thuney and Scherff would command, with both on tap to get huge deals. He mentions scanning the 2nd and 3rd wave of FA guards like Pittsburgh’s Matt Feiler, Buffalo’s Jon Feliciano, Chicago’s Germain Ifiedi, or a potential cap casualty like maybe Gabe Jackson from LV.
As he points out, they are definitely going to have some options when it comes to bolstering the line and making sure Burrow is better protected going forward.
So, what do you think? What route would you take?

I'll wait with a pessimistic attitude with them beefing up the OL with proven players. I see Version 2 of this past year and half ass signings with the "we're close" attitude...
Until they prove me wrong with the dim witted decision making I'll go by the track record.
